Borel guides Atta Boy Roy to Remington Park win

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Atta Boy Roy led most of the way under jockey Calvin Borel and won the $200,000 Remington Park Sprint Cup on Saturday night.

The 5-year-old Washington-bred son of Tribunal went off at 1-5 odds in the six-furlong race and didn't disappoint, beating Wando Redd by 5 1/2 lengths with Greeley's Conquest third. Atta Boy Roy won in 1:09.29 on a fast track.

Atta Boy Roy's trainer, Valorie Lund, says the horse is being pointed toward the Breeders' Cup. Borel, the winning jockey in the Kentucky Derby three of the last four years, has ridden Atta Boy Roy to two wins and two second-place finishes in four starts aboard the horse.

Atta Boy Roy, which is owned by Roy Schaefer of Port Orchard, Wash., paid $2.60, $2.20 and $2.10. Wando Redd paid $8.40 and $4.20 while Greeley's Conquest paid $3.

In the $150,000 Governor's Cup, Shadowbdancing held off Kick On by a half-length, with defending champion Going Ballistic third. Shadowbdancing, a 5-year-old Florida-bred son of Montbrook, went off at 2-1 odds and covered the 1 1-16 miles under jockey Eusebio Razo Jr. in 1:43.78. Shadowbdancing is trained by Terrel Gore and owned by RNB Racing of Yukon.
